The man and woman filmed having sex in front of hundreds of people in Concert Square are now wanted by police.
A number of different pieces of mobile phone footage began circulating earlier this week appearing to show the couple having sex or performing sex acts yards from the entrance of Einsten Bier Haus and in full view of bystanders.
Other clips have also emerged showing the pair appearing to have sex on Bold Street and on a Merseyrail train service. Earlier today Liverpool mayor Joanne Anderson slammed their behaviour as "damaging and criminal".

Now Superintendent Diane Pownall, of Merseyside Police Liverpool Community Policing team, has also shared a strongly worded statement on the incident. She told the ECHO: "We are investigating video footage circulating on social media which shows two people having sex in a public place in Liverpool City Centre. We believe the footage was taken in Concert Square and we are conducting extensive enquiries, including working with our partners, to establish exactly when the incident took place.
"We would urge people to refrain from sharing the video on social media and instead report anything they know about the video, or those involved, to us so that we can investigate.
"Merseyside Police will not tolerate illegal acts of public indecency on our streets and, rest assured, we are working to find those responsible and bring them to justice. All year round we work tirelessly with local businesses, Liverpool City Council and other partners to make sure that our City Centre is a safe place for people to come and visit and experience our nightlife.
"We are clear that we won’t let such unacceptable behaviour from a small minority of people tarnish the reputation of our city, so please, come forward with any information and we will take action."
The videos began circulating on social media early on Tuesday to reactions ranging from amusement to disgust, with commentators dubbing the woman "Concert Square girl". The pair did not seem fazed when members of the public approach and begin filming on their phones.
An Instagram account appearing to belong to the woman in the video states she is an "adult content creator", using the website OnlyFans, which is known for providing a platform for sex workers or adult performers to post videos and photos for paying subscribers.
The Instagram profile even includes #ConcertSquaregirl in its bio.
Mayor Anderson said today: "I am extremely shocked and concerned at videos circulating showing acts of indecent exposure and sexual activity in our city. This isn’t amusing – it’s disturbing, damaging and an illegal act.
"It also sets a dangerous precedent for the young women & men of our city. Let me be clear – this is a criminal offence. Acts of indecent behaviour in public places in Liverpool is simply unacceptable and will not be tolerated. I have spoken with Merseyside Police and requested immediate and appropriate action."
